2. Why did Parvana’s father specifically ask her to take care of the rest of the family? Use evidence from the text to support your answer.
Parvana's father asked her to take care of the rest of the family because as soon the soldiers took Parvana father away he wasn't gonna come back at all. They where gonna take him away somewhere so parvana and her family wont see him again, and so parvana father would get punished because he went to england to get education. In the text it says that, " when the soldiers dragged her father outside, she flung her arms around the waist. As the soldiers pried her loose, she heard her father say " take care of the others, my malali." then he was gone. Parvana watched helplessly as two soldiers dragged him down the steps, his beautiful shalwar kazmeez ripping on the rough cement. Then they turned a corner, and she could see them no more." So maybe that's why parvana father said to her to take care of the family.
3. How will Parvana’s family deal with the loss of her father? Explain your thinking.
